Gov Umahi Sacks Boards Members In Ebonyi

BEVERLY HILLS, May 29, (THEWILL) – Governor of Ebonyi State, David Umahi, has dissolved all boards and commissions in the state with immediate effect.

The Governor announced this during his 2021 anniversary day address to the people of the state.

The sack comes barely 24 hours after the governor sacked 83 members of the state executive council.

He however noted that some statutory boards are not affected by the dissolution. They include Judiciary Service Commission, House of Assembly Service Commission, Civil Service Commission, Local Government Service Commission and Ebonyi State Independent Electoral Commission (EBSIEC).

Umahi said the sack became necessary because some of the appointees have sympathy for the opposition People’s Democratic Party(PDP).

He also stated that the sack is to enable those who want to contest the local government elections next year and the All Progressive Congress(APC) congress to take part in the elections.
